BURIEN — King County Sheriff’s deputies are investigating after two teen girls were killed in a shooting in Burien.

KOMO reports that deputies were called to an apartment complex just after 9:30 p.m. Wednesday for reports of shots fired.

Both victims were found with gunshot wounds. Detectives believe it started as some sort of fight in the parking lot outside the building. Both victims were rushed to Harborview Medical Center in critical condition, where they later died.

Detectives said they are talking with witnesses and right now they don’t have a motive or any suspect descriptions.
